I the Mighty - Degenerates lyrics
[I the Mighty - Degenerates lyrics]
Another morning I wake up without exception
Though I guess now it's
Closer to the afternoon
And I am not the first one up as is tradition
But the last to go sleep along with you
And I breathe in the scent
Of coffee from the kitchen
I hear the laughter spilling
From the other room
And so I drag my body up and join the living
A warm reception almost right on cue
I never would have thought it
Could ever be this good
And I know each moment's fleeting
But right now I feel like I'm
Right where I should be
I am not a perfect man, I fuck up often
At least I never have to wonder why I came
If you're honest with yourself
I'll bet it's painful but, you and I are far
Less different than they say
So where do you fit in?
So where do you fit in?
Another night the sun goes
Down without exception
I hear The Matches playing
From the other room it's been a day since I
Have glanced at my reflection
No words of judgment coming from our crew
We start a fire just as the stars arrive
And I am lost within the flames
Until a touch from you brings me back
To what feels like the perfect day
So why is it you think
Some people never feel alive?
Don't they know each moment's fleeting?
I can't help but feeling I'm
Right where I should be
I am not a perfect friend or perfect lover
Oh, I admit sometimes I have too many drinks
But we are all degenerates
Half on the inside and you and I are far
Less different than they say
So where do you fit in?
So where do you fit in?
I think I found my place
To fill that empty space
That feeling we all chase
(So where do you fit in?)
And we can sing off-key, as
Long as we all sing, we sing it beautifully
My head was heavy with thoughts
When I got home
I started to focus on my fears
I thought of dying alone
But how I hate to get
Caught in pointless thought
Self-pity gets me nowhere
I guess we've all got things
We're still working out
I think I found my place
I think I found my place
I think I found my place
I think I found my place
Though I guess now it's
Closer to the afternoon
And I am not the first one up as is tradition
But the last to go sleep along with you
And I breathe in the scent
Of coffee from the kitchen
I hear the laughter spilling
From the other room
And so I drag my body up and join the living
A warm reception almost right on cue
I never would have thought it
Could ever be this good
And I know each moment's fleeting
But right now I feel like I'm
Right where I should be
I am not a perfect man, I fuck up often
At least I never have to wonder why I came
If you're honest with yourself
I'll bet it's painful but, you and I are far
Less different than they say
So where do you fit in?
So where do you fit in?
Another night the sun goes
Down without exception
I hear The Matches playing
From the other room it's been a day since I
Have glanced at my reflection
No words of judgment coming from our crew
We start a fire just as the stars arrive
And I am lost within the flames
Until a touch from you brings me back
To what feels like the perfect day
So why is it you think
Some people never feel alive?
Don't they know each moment's fleeting?
I can't help but feeling I'm
Right where I should be
I am not a perfect friend or perfect lover
Oh, I admit sometimes I have too many drinks
But we are all degenerates
Half on the inside and you and I are far
Less different than they say
So where do you fit in?
So where do you fit in?

I think I found my place
I think I found my place
I think I found my place
